It was over when, during the 2009 Golden Globes did a tribute to Steven Spielberg, he said “Spielberg didn’t direct Jaws.” I said “What?!” He said, “He may have produced it, but he didn’t direct it.”
Pause. “He didn’t direct The Color Purple, either.”

I was dating a guy long distance and we had visited a couple of times. He came up and told me he had something important to tell me. It turns out that he had sexually molested two of his own children. His therapist told him that she wouldn’t let him out of the state again unless he told me everything.

Aftermath: He got mad that I didn’t want to start a family with him (after three dates). We haven’t spoken since.

Two days after my best guy friend passed away, my boyfriend said, “Now I probably won’t feel jealous anymore.”
—Jessica
Aftermath: “Probably?” He’s dead, why would he feel jealous of a dead person??? A week after that he got mad at me for continuing to mourn the loss of my friend and said that I should be over it by now. Then he proceeded to call my mom and tell her he was worried I was going to hurt myself. WHAT THE HELL!?!?! I stopped talking to him that night and haven’t since. He was an ass anyway…

While she encouraged me to spend more time on travel, she was carrying on an affair with her boss. When I found out she blamed me for not being around enough. She never even said she was sorry.

She was a big ER fan and one night set it to record while we were watching it. I knew what was coming.
—Joe
Aftermath: Very awkwardly, she said “Look, we need to talk. I want to see other people” and I started laughing at her. It ended right there.
